PartialDependenceDisplay

PartialDependenceDisplay

Partial Dependence Plot (PDP).

This can also display individual partial dependencies which are often referred to as: Individual Condition Expectation (ICE).

It is recommended to use from\_estimator to create a PartialDependenceDisplay. All parameters are stored as attributes.

new PartialDependenceDisplay(opts?: object): PartialDependenceDisplay;

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
opts?object-
opts.deciles?anyDeciles for feature indices in features.
opts.feature_names?anyFeature names corresponding to the indices in features.
opts.features?anyIndices of features for a given plot. A tuple of one integer will plot a partial dependence curve of one feature. A tuple of two integers will plot a two-way partial dependence curve as a contour plot.
opts.is_categorical?anyWhether each target feature in features is categorical or not. The list should be same size as features. If undefined, all features are assumed to be continuous.
opts.kind?"average" | "individual" | "both"Whether to plot the partial dependence averaged across all the samples in the dataset or one line per sample or both. Default Value 'average'
opts.pd_results?anyResults of partial\_dependence for features.
opts.random_state?numberControls the randomness of the selected samples when subsamples is not undefined. See Glossary for details.
opts.subsample?numberSampling for ICE curves when kind is ‘individual’ or ‘both’. If float, should be between 0.0 and 1.0 and represent the proportion of the dataset to be used to plot ICE curves. If int, represents the maximum absolute number of samples to use. Note that the full dataset is still used to calculate partial dependence when kind='both'. Default Value 1000
opts.target_idx?numberIn a multiclass setting, specifies the class for which the PDPs should be computed. Note that for binary classification, the positive class (index 1) is always used.

Methods

dispose()

Disposes of the underlying Python resources.

Once dispose() is called, the instance is no longer usable.

Signature

dispose(): Promise<void>;

Returns

Promise<void>

from_estimator()

Partial dependence (PD) and individual conditional expectation (ICE) plots.

Partial dependence plots, individual conditional expectation plots or an overlay of both of them can be plotted by setting the kind parameter. The len(features) plots are arranged in a grid with n\_cols columns. Two-way partial dependence plots are plotted as contour plots. The deciles of the feature values will be shown with tick marks on the x-axes for one-way plots, and on both axes for two-way plots.

from_estimator(opts: object): Promise<any>;

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
optsobject-
opts.X?ArrayLike[]X is used to generate a grid of values for the target features (where the partial dependence will be evaluated), and also to generate values for the complement features when the method is 'brute'.
opts.ax?anyIf a single axis is passed in, it is treated as a bounding axes and a grid of partial dependence plots will be drawn within these bounds. The n\_cols parameter controls the number of columns in the grid.
opts.categorical_features?number | ArrayLikeIndicates the categorical features.
opts.centered?booleanIf true, the ICE and PD lines will start at the origin of the y-axis. By default, no centering is done. Default Value false
opts.contour_kw?anyDict with keywords passed to the matplotlib.pyplot.contourf call. For two-way partial dependence plots.
opts.estimator?anyA fitted estimator object implementing predict, predict_proba, or decision_function. Multioutput-multiclass classifiers are not supported.
opts.feature_names?ArrayLikeName of each feature; feature\_names\[i\] holds the name of the feature with index i. By default, the name of the feature corresponds to their numerical index for NumPy array and their column name for pandas dataframe.
opts.features?stringThe target features for which to create the PDPs. If features\[i\] is an integer or a string, a one-way PDP is created; if features\[i\] is a tuple, a two-way PDP is created (only supported with kind='average'). Each tuple must be of size 2. If any entry is a string, then it must be in feature\_names.
opts.grid_resolution?numberThe number of equally spaced points on the axes of the plots, for each target feature. Default Value 100
opts.ice_lines_kw?anyDictionary with keywords passed to the matplotlib.pyplot.plot call. For ICE lines in the one-way partial dependence plots. The key value pairs defined in ice\_lines\_kw takes priority over line\_kw.
opts.kind?"average" | "individual" | "both"Whether to plot the partial dependence averaged across all the samples in the dataset or one line per sample or both. Default Value 'average'
opts.line_kw?anyDict with keywords passed to the matplotlib.pyplot.plot call. For one-way partial dependence plots. It can be used to define common properties for both ice\_lines\_kw and pdp\_line\_kw.
opts.method?stringThe method used to calculate the averaged predictions: Default Value 'auto'
opts.n_cols?numberThe maximum number of columns in the grid plot. Only active when ax is a single axis or undefined. Default Value 3
opts.n_jobs?numberThe number of CPUs to use to compute the partial dependences. Computation is parallelized over features specified by the features parameter. undefined means 1 unless in a joblib.parallel\_backend (opens in a new tab) context. \-1 means using all processors. See Glossary for more details.
opts.pd_line_kw?anyDictionary with keywords passed to the matplotlib.pyplot.plot call. For partial dependence in one-way partial dependence plots. The key value pairs defined in pd\_line\_kw takes priority over line\_kw.
opts.percentiles?anyThe lower and upper percentile used to create the extreme values for the PDP axes. Must be in [0, 1].
opts.random_state?numberControls the randomness of the selected samples when subsamples is not undefined and kind is either 'both' or 'individual'. See Glossary for details.
opts.response_method?"auto" | "predict_proba" | "decision_function"Specifies whether to use predict_proba or decision_function as the target response. For regressors this parameter is ignored and the response is always the output of predict. By default, predict_proba is tried first and we revert to decision_function if it doesn’t exist. If method is 'recursion', the response is always the output of decision_function. Default Value 'auto'
opts.sample_weight?ArrayLikeSample weights are used to calculate weighted means when averaging the model output. If undefined, then samples are equally weighted. If sample\_weight is not undefined, then method will be set to 'brute'. Note that sample\_weight is ignored for kind='individual'.
opts.subsample?numberSampling for ICE curves when kind is ‘individual’ or ‘both’. If float, should be between 0.0 and 1.0 and represent the proportion of the dataset to be used to plot ICE curves. If int, represents the absolute number samples to use. Note that the full dataset is still used to calculate averaged partial dependence when kind='both'. Default Value 1000
opts.target?numberIn a multiclass setting, specifies the class for which the PDPs should be computed. Note that for binary classification, the positive class (index 1) is always used.
opts.verbose?numberVerbose output during PD computations. Default Value 0
